1
00:00:21,785 --> 00:00:24,629
♫ Ground floor perfumery,
stationery and leather goods
2
00:00:24,629 --> 00:00:27,345
♫ Wigs and haberdashery,
kitchenware and food
3
00:00:27,345 --> 00:00:29,595
♫ Going up
4
00:00:37,429 --> 00:00:40,146
- Oh, is that the best
you can do Miss Brahms.
5
00:00:40,146 --> 00:00:43,729
- Oh it's not my job
is it, I'll try again.
6
00:00:56,272 --> 00:00:57,549
Well look, the girl who operates the lift
7
00:00:57,549 --> 00:00:59,709
should be here to help us with the move.
8
00:00:59,709 --> 00:01:02,042
- Oh never mind, come along.
9
00:01:05,948 --> 00:01:08,746
Oh, Miss Brahms, pull your skirt down.
10
00:01:08,746 --> 00:01:09,823
- But we're not open.
11
00:01:09,823 --> 00:01:12,498
- That may be, but now that
we're sharing our department,
12
00:01:12,498 --> 00:01:15,147
with gents outfitting, it might pay us
13
00:01:15,147 --> 00:01:17,814
to be a little more circumspect.
14
00:01:19,140 --> 00:01:21,390
- Oh blimey, women drivers.
15
00:01:22,581 --> 00:01:24,903
- That'll do, Mr. Mash,
instead of standing there,
16
00:01:24,903 --> 00:01:29,091
making sarcastic remarks,
you could give us a hand.
17
00:01:29,091 --> 00:01:30,946
- Middle class cow.
18
00:01:37,830 --> 00:01:40,106
- All that women's lib's
gone to her head, mate.
19
00:01:40,106 --> 00:01:41,186
- Oh, I hope not.
20
00:01:41,186 --> 00:01:43,032
If she burns her bra, we'll have to call
21
00:01:43,032 --> 00:01:44,467
out the London Fire Brigade.
22
00:01:47,068 --> 00:01:48,312
- Women's department.
23
00:01:48,312 --> 00:01:51,029
Who ever heard of a women's
department on this floor?
24
00:01:51,029 --> 00:01:53,293
It's been men's ever since I was a boy.
25
00:01:53,293 --> 00:01:55,545
- That Mrs. Pankhurst
really started something.
26
00:01:55,545 --> 00:01:57,867
- Well what are you going to
do about it Mr. Humphries?
27
00:01:57,867 --> 00:01:59,144
- Well as a matter of fact, I was thinking
28
00:01:59,144 --> 00:02:01,987
of chaining meself to the lift gates.
29
00:02:03,193 --> 00:02:04,261
Kinky.
30
00:02:09,706 --> 00:02:11,206
Here you are then.
31
00:02:14,187 --> 00:02:16,382
- Mr. Knowles sent it up from display.
32
00:02:16,382 --> 00:02:19,389
It's the new Beauty Belle
point of sale model.
33
00:02:19,389 --> 00:02:20,782
Here watch this, look.
34
00:02:25,983 --> 00:02:29,106
- I'm not having that common
thing in my department.
35
00:02:29,106 --> 00:02:30,975
- You're just jealous
'cause you can't do it.
36
00:02:33,506 --> 00:02:35,423
Oh I don't know though.
37
00:02:37,268 --> 00:02:39,300
- Hide it somewhere Miss Brahms.
38
00:02:39,300 --> 00:02:41,465
- Oh no, you can't do that Mrs. Slocombe.
39
00:02:43,067 --> 00:02:44,693
- Because we now have the sole concession
40
00:02:44,693 --> 00:02:45,813
for Beauty Belle.
41
00:02:45,813 --> 00:02:47,453
- I'm not surprised.
42
00:02:47,453 --> 00:02:49,415
- And if you don't display
it somewhere prominent,
43
00:02:49,415 --> 00:02:51,145
you'll have trouble with
the buying department.
44
00:02:51,145 --> 00:02:52,213
- I see.
45
00:02:52,213 --> 00:02:54,907
Find somewhere prominent
for it Miss Brahms.
46
00:02:54,907 --> 00:02:59,074
And in the meantime, I'll just
shove it under the counter.
47
00:03:12,136 --> 00:03:14,027
- I say is that the best you can do.
48
00:03:14,027 --> 00:03:17,545
- It's the nearest I've
been to it all morning.
49
00:03:17,545 --> 00:03:20,225
Here hang on, give me a hand with this.
50
00:03:20,225 --> 00:03:21,142
Well come on, which end do you want,
51
00:03:21,142 --> 00:03:21,975
heads or tails.
52
00:03:21,975 --> 00:03:22,827
- Now do be careful.
53
00:03:22,827 --> 00:03:25,335
Mrs. Slocombe had to
wait six weeks for it.
54
00:03:25,335 --> 00:03:26,867
- Well when you get to her
age, what can you expect.
55
00:03:28,702 --> 00:03:31,511
- Mr. Lucas, put something on it.
56
00:03:31,511 --> 00:03:33,984
It is a house rule, you know.
57
00:03:33,984 --> 00:03:35,668
- Well, I'm sorry Mr.
Grainger, I thought it
58
00:03:35,668 --> 00:03:37,630
was alright, if it was wearing tights.
59
00:03:40,986 --> 00:03:42,391
- I see what you mean.
60
00:03:42,391 --> 00:03:45,224
- Anyway, the upper
part should be obscured.
61
00:03:45,224 --> 00:03:46,628
- I'm sorry Mr. Grainger.
62
00:03:48,869 --> 00:03:51,342
- How long have you been
with Grace Brothers,
63
00:03:51,342 --> 00:03:52,387
Mr Lucas?
64
00:03:52,387 --> 00:03:54,152
- One month, Mr. Grainger.
65
00:03:54,152 --> 00:03:56,497
I'm still sort of feeling my way around,
66
00:03:56,497 --> 00:03:57,507
as you might say.
67
00:03:58,622 --> 00:03:59,455
- Yes.
68
00:04:03,712 --> 00:04:04,908
- Alright then lend us your knickers.
69
00:04:04,908 --> 00:04:06,347
- Now don't you start.
70
00:04:06,347 --> 00:04:08,472
And anyway, they wouldn't
obscure anything.
71
00:04:08,472 --> 00:04:09,749
Oh, the lift doors.
72
00:04:09,749 --> 00:04:12,106
- Hang on, back up.
73
00:04:12,106 --> 00:04:14,773
Where is the button, oh, whoops.
74
00:04:19,417 --> 00:04:20,991
- Where do you want it, Mrs. Slocombe.
75
00:04:20,991 --> 00:04:23,824
- Oh, put it on the podium Miss Brahms.
76
00:04:23,824 --> 00:04:25,983
- Come on dear, you're
going on the podium.
77
00:04:27,290 --> 00:04:29,351
That's it, on there, that's right.
78
00:04:29,351 --> 00:04:31,518
- Oh really not so clumsy.
79
00:04:32,903 --> 00:04:34,903
- Thank you Miss Brahms.
80
00:04:38,430 --> 00:04:42,749
- Just a minute. Isn't
there something missing?
81
00:04:42,749 --> 00:04:45,988
- Well no, I think it looks
quite realistic actually.
82
00:04:45,988 --> 00:04:48,026
Oh, I see what you mean.
83
00:04:48,026 --> 00:04:49,943
It must be in the lift.
84
00:04:50,870 --> 00:04:53,146
- Put the Chandor two
piece on it Miss Brahms.
85
00:04:53,146 --> 00:04:54,267
- Yes, Mrs. Slocombe.
86
00:04:54,267 --> 00:04:55,893
- Oh and hurry up with
that head, Mr. Lucas,
87
00:04:55,893 --> 00:04:57,289
it's nearly opening time.
88
00:04:57,289 --> 00:04:59,206
- I shan't be a minute.
89
00:05:06,712 --> 00:05:07,548
- It suits you.
90
00:05:18,392 --> 00:05:19,392
- I'm sorry.
91
00:05:20,830 --> 00:05:23,500
- The other way 'round, Mr. Lucas.
92
00:05:23,500 --> 00:05:24,333
- Oh yes.
93
00:05:25,590 --> 00:05:26,507
- Oh really.
94
00:05:29,747 --> 00:05:31,024
That's better.
95
00:05:31,024 --> 00:05:33,706
Oh, look what you've done to the nose.
96
00:05:33,706 --> 00:05:35,784
Oh, you've ruined it.
97
00:05:35,784 --> 00:05:39,186
- No I haven't. I haven't ruined it.
98
00:05:39,186 --> 00:05:40,985
Well I mean they always look
too perfect, these models
99
00:05:40,985 --> 00:05:42,552
anyway don't they.
100
00:05:42,552 --> 00:05:45,141
I mean people do have
crooked noses, you know?
101
00:05:45,141 --> 00:05:46,709
Somebody might come in one
day with a crooked nose
102
00:05:46,709 --> 00:05:48,102
look at that dress, and
say I'll have that dress,
103
00:05:48,102 --> 00:05:49,507
it'll go with my crooked nose.
104
00:05:51,422 --> 00:05:54,023
- I don't think they would, Mr. Lucas.
105
00:05:54,023 --> 00:05:56,229
I'm afraid I shall have to
complain to your superiors
106
00:05:56,229 --> 00:05:57,425
about this.
107
00:05:57,425 --> 00:05:59,747
And in the meantime, Miss Brahms, oh dear,
108
00:05:59,747 --> 00:06:02,150
take the head off that model over there.
109
00:06:02,150 --> 00:06:03,787
- Yeah, but it's not all
his fault, Mrs. Slocombe,
110
00:06:03,787 --> 00:06:05,262
I did ask him to help me.
111
00:06:05,262 --> 00:06:06,782
- Well there will have to be an inquiry.
112
00:06:06,782 --> 00:06:08,269
Somebody will have to pay.
113
00:06:08,269 --> 00:06:09,511
- Well I was only trying to help.
114
00:06:09,511 --> 00:06:11,543
- Oh and look at the marks on the shoes.
115
00:06:11,543 --> 00:06:12,854
- Well I have something to get that off.
116
00:06:12,854 --> 00:06:13,854
- Oh really.
117
00:06:15,269 --> 00:06:18,822
- Hand me some of the cuff
links, will you Mr. Humphries?
118
00:06:20,459 --> 00:06:22,781
- No no, gold is more dignified.
119
00:06:22,781 --> 00:06:25,509
The glitter detracts from the shirt,
120
00:06:25,509 --> 00:06:27,262
and it's the shirt we're trying to show.
121
00:06:27,262 --> 00:06:28,659
- Quite right Mr. Grainger,
I never would have
122
00:06:28,659 --> 00:06:29,492
thought of that.
123
00:06:29,492 --> 00:06:32,270
- Don't rub too hard. Gold
isn't what it used to be.
124
00:06:32,270 --> 00:06:33,187
- No, no it isn't.
125
00:06:33,187 --> 00:06:34,906
Nothing's what it used to
be, is it Mr. Grainger?
126
00:06:34,906 --> 00:06:35,989
- No, indeed.
127
00:06:37,993 --> 00:06:40,467
How do you find young Mr. Lucas?
128
00:06:40,467 --> 00:06:41,992
- Oh he's very obliging.
129
00:06:43,268 --> 00:06:45,625
- Well I mean he helps out
and that sort of thing.
130
00:06:45,625 --> 00:06:47,262
- Yes, well I think it's time he stopped
131
00:06:47,262 --> 00:06:50,269
helping out the ladies and
returned to his own department.
132
00:06:51,627 --> 00:06:52,462
- Yes.
133
00:06:52,462 --> 00:06:56,270
Say that I would like
to have a word with him.
134
00:06:57,349 --> 00:06:58,310
- Good morning Mr. Lucas.
135
00:06:58,310 --> 00:06:59,622
- Oh.
136
00:06:59,622 --> 00:07:01,828
- Am I to understand that
you have deserted gentlemen's
137
00:07:01,828 --> 00:07:03,627
ready made in favor of the ladies?
138
00:07:03,627 --> 00:07:05,229
- Well I'm just giving
a helping hand, sir.
139
00:07:05,229 --> 00:07:06,947
- Well I'm glad to see that
the arrival of the ladies
140
00:07:06,947 --> 00:07:09,432
in your territory hasn't
caused any bad blood.
141
00:07:09,432 --> 00:07:11,255
- Oh no, not from me Captain Peacock.
142
00:07:11,255 --> 00:07:13,983
- Mmmm. One wonders whether
the arrival of gentlemen's
143
00:07:13,983 --> 00:07:15,955
shoes, for instance,
would have been treated
144
00:07:15,955 --> 00:07:17,511
with the same enthusiasm.
145
00:07:17,511 --> 00:07:20,054
- Mr. Lucas is doing his
best to make us feel at home,
146
00:07:20,054 --> 00:07:21,667
Captain Peacock,
147
00:07:21,667 --> 00:07:23,026
which is more than can
be said for the rest
148
00:07:23,026 --> 00:07:24,430
of the department.
149
00:07:24,430 --> 00:07:26,950
- Well just a passing
phase, Mrs. Slocombe.
150
00:07:26,950 --> 00:07:28,831
With your personality,
I'm sure you could charm
151
00:07:28,831 --> 00:07:30,421
the very birds off the trees.
152
00:07:30,421 --> 00:07:32,458
- Oh, oh I wouldn't say that.
153
00:07:32,458 --> 00:07:34,223
- Neither would I.
154
00:07:34,223 --> 00:07:35,942
- And Lucas, while you're down there,
155
00:07:35,942 --> 00:07:37,463
straighten those seams.
156
00:07:37,463 --> 00:07:39,542
I hate to see crooked seams.
157
00:07:39,542 --> 00:07:40,505
- Yes, Mr. Peacock.
158
00:07:41,338 --> 00:07:42,838
- Captain Peacock.
159
00:07:51,268 --> 00:07:52,101
- No!
160
00:07:53,989 --> 00:07:57,751
- I'm sorry Mrs. Slocombe,
Captain Peacock told me
161
00:07:57,751 --> 00:07:58,584
to do it.
162
00:07:58,584 --> 00:07:59,467
I mean straighten them, I mean.
163
00:07:59,467 --> 00:08:01,107
Not yours, the dummies.
164
00:08:01,107 --> 00:08:02,071
- Griffin wants you.
165
00:08:02,071 --> 00:08:03,255
- Yes thank you.
166
00:08:04,950 --> 00:08:06,033
I'm so sorry.
167
00:08:10,465 --> 00:08:11,986
- Oh that Mr. Lucas just put his hands
168
00:08:11,986 --> 00:08:13,344
all over me stockings.
169
00:08:13,344 --> 00:08:15,945
- Oh dear. I hope he didn't snag them.
170
00:08:15,945 --> 00:08:20,066
- No, no. He has quite
smooth hands actually.
171
00:08:23,421 --> 00:08:26,742
- Mr. Lucas, it isn't that
we want to be unfriendly
172
00:08:26,742 --> 00:08:30,271
to the ladies, but at the
same time, we don't want
173
00:08:30,271 --> 00:08:32,988
to be too outgoing in our welcome.
174
00:08:32,988 --> 00:08:34,799
- Well I was only trying to
be helpful, I mean after all,
175
00:08:34,799 --> 00:08:36,228
they are human beings aren't they.
176
00:08:36,228 --> 00:08:38,143
- Yes, you may be right there.
177
00:08:38,143 --> 00:08:40,941
But see it from our point of view.
178
00:08:40,941 --> 00:08:43,786
That section has been part
of the gents ready made
179
00:08:43,786 --> 00:08:47,025
for the last 25 years,
hasn't it Mr. Humphries?
180
00:08:47,025 --> 00:08:48,023
- Yes, Mr. Grainger.
181
00:08:48,023 --> 00:08:51,506
- Now we have 30 percent
less space, which could mean
182
00:08:51,506 --> 00:08:55,673
30 percent less sales and
possibly 30 percent less salesmen.
183
00:08:57,590 --> 00:08:58,751
Am I right Mr. Humphries?
184
00:08:58,751 --> 00:09:00,388
- Quite right, Mr. Grainger.
185
00:09:00,388 --> 00:09:03,778
- And you have only been
with us a very short time,
186
00:09:03,778 --> 00:09:05,311
am I right Mr. Lucas?
187
00:09:05,311 --> 00:09:06,866
- Quite right, Mr. Grainger.
188
00:09:06,866 --> 00:09:09,199
- Just watch it, that's all.
189
00:09:10,222 --> 00:09:11,383
- Don't take any notice of him.
190
00:09:11,383 --> 00:09:14,111
He won't sack you. He's too soft hearted.
191
00:09:14,111 --> 00:09:15,423
He'll get Peacock to do it.
192
00:09:18,859 --> 00:09:20,504
- I mean was that right what
he said about, you know,
193
00:09:20,504 --> 00:09:21,792
30 percent less sales?
194
00:09:21,792 --> 00:09:22,942
- No not in your case.
195
00:09:22,942 --> 00:09:26,111
I mean you couldn't have 30
percent of nothing, could you?
196
00:09:27,586 --> 00:09:30,349
I mean it's all this
stupid seniority thing.
197
00:09:30,349 --> 00:09:32,148
The only chance I get a
look in to serve someone
198
00:09:32,148 --> 00:09:34,180
is when you're too busy
serving somebody else.
199
00:09:34,180 --> 00:09:35,701
- Yeah, well when you've
been here as long as I have,
200
00:09:35,701 --> 00:09:37,152
you'll get first batch.
201
00:09:37,152 --> 00:09:38,789
- By that time, I shan't
hear what the customer's
202
00:09:38,789 --> 00:09:40,671
asking for, for the creaking of my joints.
203
00:09:40,671 --> 00:09:42,621
- Another remark like
that and you could lose
204
00:09:42,621 --> 00:09:44,339
the only friend you have.
205
00:09:46,058 --> 00:09:48,496
- Opening time. Stand by for the stampede.
206
00:09:48,496 --> 00:09:49,506
- Time Mr. Lucas.
207
00:09:49,506 --> 00:09:50,704
- Yes of course, Captain Peacock,
208
00:09:50,704 --> 00:09:51,899
anything in particular sir.
209
00:09:51,899 --> 00:09:55,028
- Straighten your tie, Mr. Lucas.
210
00:09:55,028 --> 00:09:56,195
- Oh, yes sir.
211
00:09:57,623 --> 00:09:59,829
- One pencil is sufficient.
212
00:09:59,829 --> 00:10:01,746
- Yes, Captain Peacock.
213
00:10:02,986 --> 00:10:06,388
Shall I keep the HB or the special soft?
214
00:10:06,388 --> 00:10:08,257
- If you were troubled to read
the memo from the accounts
215
00:10:08,257 --> 00:10:11,299
department, you would know
that they prefer ball points.
216
00:10:11,299 --> 00:10:12,344
Correct Mr. Humphries?
217
00:10:12,344 --> 00:10:13,830
- Ball points, Captain Peacock.
218
00:10:17,987 --> 00:10:19,391
- Actually I did have a
ball point, but I was always
219
00:10:19,391 --> 00:10:21,423
getting ticked off, because
I kept getting blue streaks
220
00:10:21,423 --> 00:10:23,071
on me white handkerchief, you see.
221
00:10:23,071 --> 00:10:26,263
- Possibly a retractable pen
would solve your problems.
222
00:10:26,263 --> 00:10:28,422
- Oh that's very nice, sir.
223
00:10:28,422 --> 00:10:31,184
- You can get them from the stationery.
224
00:10:31,184 --> 00:10:32,392
You get a staff discount.
225
00:10:32,392 --> 00:10:33,472
- Yes sir.
226
00:10:33,472 --> 00:10:36,107
- And by the way, about that handkerchief.
227
00:10:36,107 --> 00:10:39,462
May I show you how we
do it at Grace Brothers?
228
00:10:39,462 --> 00:10:42,272
We don't just take it from the laundry,
229
00:10:42,272 --> 00:10:44,025
fold it and stuff it in.
230
00:10:46,149 --> 00:10:47,624
- No.
231
00:10:50,945 --> 00:10:51,827
Oh, excuse me.
232
00:10:51,827 --> 00:10:53,327
- Don't interrupt.
233
00:10:55,461 --> 00:10:56,711
We place it so.
234
00:10:57,864 --> 00:11:01,429
We then take it in the middle like so.
235
00:11:01,429 --> 00:11:02,679
We flute it so.
236
00:11:06,142 --> 00:11:08,475
We bend over the bottom, so.
237
00:11:09,544 --> 00:11:11,294
And tuck it back, so.
238
00:11:13,584 --> 00:11:16,251
The effect is casual, but smart.
239
00:11:17,984 --> 00:11:19,751
- It sets the pen off nicely too.
240
00:11:21,145 --> 00:11:22,422
- Well do it.
241
00:11:22,422 --> 00:11:24,005
- Ah, yes, yes sir.
242
00:11:28,586 --> 00:11:31,512
- Take it from the center
or as near to the center
243
00:11:31,512 --> 00:11:32,762
as you can get.
244
00:11:35,785 --> 00:11:36,667
Flute it.
245
00:11:36,667 --> 00:11:38,304
- Flute it.
246
00:11:40,626 --> 00:11:42,684
- Bend over the bottom.
247
00:11:42,684 --> 00:11:44,341
- Bend over the bottom.
248
00:11:44,341 --> 00:11:46,187
- And tuck it.
249
00:11:46,187 --> 00:11:47,020
- Tuck it.
250
00:11:53,025 --> 00:11:56,108
- Good. That's much better. Carry on.
251
00:11:57,147 --> 00:11:58,784
- What a bloody palaver.
252
00:12:00,061 --> 00:12:02,070
- You must admit, it
does look rather smart.
253
00:12:02,070 --> 00:12:03,184
- Well I suppose it does.
254
00:12:03,184 --> 00:12:04,577
- Especially if it's on cardboard.
255
00:12:07,503 --> 00:12:09,430
- How long did you say
you'd been with this firm?
256
00:12:09,430 --> 00:12:10,263
Ten years is it?
257
00:12:10,263 --> 00:12:11,543
I mean how'd you manage to put up with it?
258
00:12:11,543 --> 00:12:13,343
- You just have to smile
and grit your teeth.
259
00:12:13,343 --> 00:12:14,992
This is the second set I've had this year.
260
00:12:16,698 --> 00:12:18,823
I like it much better
than where I was before.
261
00:12:18,823 --> 00:12:21,307
I was in tools, paint and hardware.
262
00:12:21,307 --> 00:12:23,943
You meet a much nicer class
of person at Grace Brothers.
263
00:12:25,301 --> 00:12:26,753
- Well who wants to buy
a suit at nine o'clock
264
00:12:26,753 --> 00:12:27,693
on a Monday morning?
265
00:12:27,693 --> 00:12:29,469
- That fellow does.
266
00:12:29,469 --> 00:12:31,025
Let me serve him.
267
00:12:31,025 --> 00:12:32,453
I didn't make any commission last Friday.
268
00:12:32,453 --> 00:12:34,148
- You sold that 38 long.
269
00:12:34,148 --> 00:12:35,669
- I know, but the man
brought it back again.
270
00:12:35,669 --> 00:12:36,910
His wife didn't like
it, it didn't fit her.
271
00:12:36,910 --> 00:12:38,308
Go on please, let me have it.
272
00:12:38,308 --> 00:12:39,701
- It's Grainger's first.
273
00:12:39,701 --> 00:12:41,582
- Well he hasn't seen
him. I'm gonna serve him.
274
00:12:41,582 --> 00:12:43,149
- Well don't mess it up.
275
00:12:44,461 --> 00:12:45,294
- Uh no.
276
00:12:45,294 --> 00:12:46,852
- Then perhaps I could interest
you sir in an overcoat, sir,
277
00:12:46,852 --> 00:12:47,685
what do you think?
278
00:12:47,685 --> 00:12:48,902
This type of overcoat
right here is ideal for our
279
00:12:48,902 --> 00:12:50,586
present inclement weather
that we're having sir.
280
00:12:50,586 --> 00:12:52,792
Now of course it looks
like tweed, but in fact,
281
00:12:52,792 --> 00:12:54,752
it has been macatexed,
282
00:12:54,752 --> 00:12:57,991
which means that it is
almost entirely waterproof.
283
00:12:57,991 --> 00:12:59,547
What size are you sir?
284
00:12:59,547 --> 00:13:01,625
- Well as a matter of fact,
I was looking for the gents.
285
00:13:04,469 --> 00:13:07,590
- In that case, size doesn't
really come into it does it?
286
00:13:07,590 --> 00:13:08,423
It's over there.
287
00:13:08,423 --> 00:13:09,423
- Thank you.
288
00:13:13,822 --> 00:13:14,704
- Mr. Lucas.
289
00:13:14,704 --> 00:13:15,551
- Yes.
290
00:13:15,551 --> 00:13:17,662
- If you would've allowed Mr.
Humphries or myself to deal
291
00:13:17,662 --> 00:13:20,217
with that customer, we
might've made a sale.
292
00:13:20,217 --> 00:13:21,111
What did he want?
293
00:13:21,111 --> 00:13:21,944
- The gents.
294
00:13:23,044 --> 00:13:25,060
- The gents gents.
295
00:13:25,060 --> 00:13:26,697
- Oh must be raining again.
296
00:13:29,391 --> 00:13:32,305
They always come in when it's raining.
297
00:13:32,305 --> 00:13:34,871
Well now get behind your counter,
298
00:13:34,871 --> 00:13:38,505
because young Mr. Grace will
be coming in any minute.
299
00:13:39,584 --> 00:13:42,464
- Young Mr. Grace, the chairman.
300
00:13:42,464 --> 00:13:45,620
Yes, he'll be coming in, he
always comes in the first Monday
301
00:13:45,620 --> 00:13:46,537
of the month.
302
00:13:46,537 --> 00:13:47,431
- Yes sir.
303
00:13:47,431 --> 00:13:50,181
- Right and clear up that litter.
304
00:13:52,413 --> 00:13:54,330
- Clear up that litter.
305
00:13:57,788 --> 00:13:58,984
Hello.
306
00:14:00,029 --> 00:14:02,026
- Blue cinema club.
307
00:14:02,026 --> 00:14:04,069
- I shouldn't have though
a young virile gentleman
308
00:14:04,069 --> 00:14:06,413
like yourself needed
that sort of stimulation.
309
00:14:06,413 --> 00:14:08,979
- It's not mine. It fell out
of Captain Peacock's pocket.
310
00:14:08,979 --> 00:14:12,056
- It didn't. Let me have a look.
311
00:14:12,056 --> 00:14:15,225
Oh, member's signature,
Captain John Smith.
312
00:14:16,058 --> 00:14:18,952
Captain John Smith. That's him all right.
313
00:14:18,952 --> 00:14:20,670
I wondered why he brought
that brown rain coat
314
00:14:20,670 --> 00:14:22,029
in the sale.
315
00:14:22,029 --> 00:14:23,944
- I better give it to him.
316
00:14:23,944 --> 00:14:26,220
- That'll be the last thing you do.
317
00:14:27,053 --> 00:14:28,670
- Well if he knows that you
know that he goes sitting
318
00:14:28,670 --> 00:14:31,387
in that little cinema, where
there's no room for your legs
319
00:14:31,387 --> 00:14:32,870
and they always have their
mac's over their knees.
320
00:14:35,192 --> 00:14:38,338
- My doctor sent me there for therapy.
321
00:14:41,446 --> 00:14:43,992
- That's none of your business.
322
00:14:45,141 --> 00:14:46,186
- We are going to do nothing.
323
00:14:46,186 --> 00:14:47,545
You leave it there. He'll see it.
324
00:14:47,545 --> 00:14:50,308
He's got eyes like a
Scandinavian mountain hawk.
325
00:14:50,308 --> 00:14:51,910
We'll pretend we haven't seen it.
326
00:14:51,910 --> 00:14:53,942
- Now then, I don't want
anybody to go to coffee until
327
00:14:53,942 --> 00:14:55,823
young Mr. Grace the chairman
comes through on his way
328
00:14:55,823 --> 00:14:56,902
to the executive suite.
329
00:14:56,902 --> 00:14:59,652
- Of course not, Captain Peacock.
330
00:15:04,669 --> 00:15:06,469
I understand that Mr. Grace
comes in on every Monday morning
331
00:15:06,469 --> 00:15:08,512
of the first Monday of every month sir.
332
00:15:08,512 --> 00:15:12,100
- Quite right Mr. Smith, uh Lucas.
333
00:15:12,100 --> 00:15:14,224
- I am looking forward to seeing him, sir.
334
00:15:14,224 --> 00:15:18,253
- We're all looking forward to seeing him.
335
00:15:18,253 --> 00:15:20,036
And you remember how to flute yours?
336
00:15:20,036 --> 00:15:21,267
- Oh yes sir.
337
00:15:21,267 --> 00:15:24,267
- Well I'll just show you once more.
338
00:15:39,631 --> 00:15:41,547
Is that clear?
339
00:15:41,547 --> 00:15:43,130
- Casual but smart.
340
00:15:43,985 --> 00:15:45,703
- Just like a conjuring trick.
341
00:15:48,350 --> 00:15:50,788
- Yes, well carry on.
342
00:15:50,788 --> 00:15:51,822
- Hello, here he is.
343
00:15:52,655 --> 00:15:53,865
- Young Mr. Grace.
344
00:15:55,831 --> 00:15:56,664
- Morning.
345
00:16:01,702 --> 00:16:04,547
- Old Mr. Grace doesn't get
about very much these days.
346
00:16:08,348 --> 00:16:09,671
- Morning. Morning.
347
00:16:09,671 --> 00:16:11,425
Good morning.
348
00:16:11,425 --> 00:16:13,049
- Morning. Morning.
349
00:16:13,049 --> 00:16:14,755
Good morning sir.
350
00:16:14,755 --> 00:16:17,172
- Good morning. Good morning.
351
00:16:18,316 --> 00:16:20,588
Good morning.
352
00:16:20,588 --> 00:16:22,666
- Good morning.
353
00:16:22,666 --> 00:16:23,862
- He's worth two million.
354
00:16:24,744 --> 00:16:25,789
- He can't take it with him.
355
00:16:25,789 --> 00:16:26,822
- The way he's walking, it looks at though
356
00:16:26,822 --> 00:16:27,751
he's carrying it on his back.
357
00:16:29,783 --> 00:16:30,616
- Morning.
358
00:16:30,616 --> 00:16:31,866
- Good morning.
359
00:16:35,662 --> 00:16:36,702
- Your receipt is inside.
360
00:16:36,702 --> 00:16:39,221
Thank you so much, good morning.
361
00:16:39,221 --> 00:16:40,382
- Good morning.
362
00:16:40,382 --> 00:16:41,215
- Oh Miss Brahms.
363
00:16:41,215 --> 00:16:42,048
- Yes.
364
00:16:42,048 --> 00:16:44,706
- I want you to pop over
and ask Mr. Humphries
365
00:16:44,706 --> 00:16:48,468
if he'd mind removing his
shirts from this center stand.
366
00:16:48,468 --> 00:16:51,103
I want to put our strapless bras up there.
367
00:16:51,103 --> 00:16:52,102
- Yes Mrs. Slocombe.
368
00:16:52,102 --> 00:16:54,342
- And don't get delayed by that Mr. Lucas.
369
00:16:54,342 --> 00:16:55,175
- No.
370
00:16:55,175 --> 00:16:57,152
- And don't forget to
mention all these trousers.
371
00:16:57,152 --> 00:16:57,985
- Fine.
372
00:16:59,985 --> 00:17:02,551
Are you free Mr. Humphries?
373
00:17:02,551 --> 00:17:04,304
- At the moment, yes.
374
00:17:04,304 --> 00:17:05,137
- Good.
375
00:17:05,137 --> 00:17:07,145
Mrs. Slocombe asked me to
ask you if you wouldn't mind
376
00:17:07,145 --> 00:17:09,827
removing your shirts in
the center display stand.
377
00:17:10,744 --> 00:17:11,577
Whatever for?
378
00:17:11,577 --> 00:17:13,391
- Well she wants to put
her strapless bras there.
379
00:17:13,391 --> 00:17:15,457
Oh yes, and there's the trousers as well.
380
00:17:15,457 --> 00:17:17,628
- I'm sorry, my dear. That's
more than my job's worth.
381
00:17:17,628 --> 00:17:19,335
You'll have to take it
up with Mr. Grainger.
382
00:17:19,335 --> 00:17:20,949
They're his trousers, anyway.
383
00:17:20,949 --> 00:17:24,949
- Thank you Mr. Humphries
for being so obliging.
384
00:17:26,266 --> 00:17:27,230
- She's got a nerve.
385
00:17:28,063 --> 00:17:30,945
- She wants to remove my shirt
and put a bra there instead.
386
00:17:30,945 --> 00:17:33,302
- Just you or all of us.
387
00:17:33,302 --> 00:17:37,098
- Don't worry about the
sleeves sir, they'll ride up
388
00:17:37,098 --> 00:17:37,931
with wear.
389
00:17:38,944 --> 00:17:43,832
If they don't, do bring them
back and this is yours, sir.
390
00:17:43,832 --> 00:17:45,582
Good day to you, sir.
391
00:17:46,781 --> 00:17:49,591
Oh, are you being served madam?
392
00:17:49,591 --> 00:17:52,110
- No, I'm Mrs. Slocombe's
assistant, Miss Brahms.
393
00:17:52,110 --> 00:17:53,110
- Oh indeed.
394
00:17:54,142 --> 00:17:56,429
- Yes she asked me to ask you
if you'd mind if Mr. Humphries
395
00:17:56,429 --> 00:17:58,983
took the shirts down
from the center display.
396
00:17:58,983 --> 00:18:02,745
- Take the shirts down
from the center display?
397
00:18:02,745 --> 00:18:05,299
- Yes, she wants to put her bras there.
398
00:18:08,353 --> 00:18:10,187
- No, her bras.
399
00:18:10,187 --> 00:18:12,335
Oh yes, and there's the trousers as well.
400
00:18:14,192 --> 00:18:16,944
- Mrs. Slocombe didn't like
to take down your trousers
401
00:18:16,944 --> 00:18:19,027
without asking you first.
402
00:18:21,054 --> 00:18:24,189
- I think that if Mrs. Slocombe
wants to make any further
403
00:18:24,189 --> 00:18:27,381
inroads into my department, she had better
404
00:18:27,381 --> 00:18:29,216
inform me personally.
405
00:18:29,216 --> 00:18:30,783
- Right, well I'll tell her,
you'll come across then.
406
00:18:30,783 --> 00:18:33,546
- On the contrary, she
can come and see me.
407
00:18:33,546 --> 00:18:34,546
- Very well.
408
00:18:38,550 --> 00:18:40,384
- She did ask me first, Mr. Grainger,
409
00:18:40,384 --> 00:18:42,068
but of course, I sent
her straight over to you.
410
00:18:42,068 --> 00:18:43,867
- You're quite right, indeed.
411
00:18:43,867 --> 00:18:44,866
- I hope I did the right thing.
412
00:18:44,866 --> 00:18:47,072
- You certainly did.
413
00:18:47,072 --> 00:18:48,825
- I hope I did the right
thing, Mrs. Slocombe.
414
00:18:48,825 --> 00:18:50,950
- You did Miss Brahms.
415
00:18:50,950 --> 00:18:52,784
I'll soon sort him out.
416
00:18:52,784 --> 00:18:54,746
He'll feel the rough edge of me tongue.
417
00:18:54,746 --> 00:18:57,544
- Yes, well do be careful Mrs. Slocombe.
418
00:18:57,544 --> 00:18:59,065
- Round two, Mrs. Slocombe
comes out of her corner
419
00:18:59,065 --> 00:19:00,423
on her two flat feet.
420
00:19:02,060 --> 00:19:03,465
- Good morning, Mr. Grainger.
421
00:19:03,465 --> 00:19:04,429
- Morning.
422
00:19:05,532 --> 00:19:07,749
- Uh, yes, I'm free.
423
00:19:07,749 --> 00:19:10,187
- I understand that there's
been a little misunderstanding
424
00:19:10,187 --> 00:19:12,068
regarding the center stand.
425
00:19:12,068 --> 00:19:13,148
- Not at all.
426
00:19:13,148 --> 00:19:16,271
That stand has been the focal
point of our sales display
427
00:19:16,271 --> 00:19:20,149
since the advent of Oxford
banks and it is going to stay
428
00:19:20,149 --> 00:19:21,217
that way.
429
00:19:21,217 --> 00:19:23,469
- Oh, that isn't what I
understood when I agreed
430
00:19:23,469 --> 00:19:25,269
to share my department with you.
431
00:19:25,269 --> 00:19:28,380
- May I remind you, that
I am not sharing with you.
432
00:19:28,380 --> 00:19:30,296
You are sharing with me.
433
00:19:31,376 --> 00:19:34,301
- The difference, Mrs.
Slocombe, is that you're
434
00:19:34,301 --> 00:19:36,634
not going to get that stand.
435
00:19:37,668 --> 00:19:39,189
- I see.
436
00:19:39,189 --> 00:19:42,103
Well I shall have to go over your head,
437
00:19:42,103 --> 00:19:44,936
which won't be all that difficult.
438
00:19:47,455 --> 00:19:48,860
- Can I get you a glass
of water, Mr. Grainger.
439
00:19:48,860 --> 00:19:49,693
- Yes.
440
00:19:49,693 --> 00:19:51,147
- A glass of water for Mr. Grainger.
441
00:19:51,147 --> 00:19:52,471
Let the cold tap run.
442
00:19:59,529 --> 00:20:01,279
- At the moment, yes.
443
00:20:02,142 --> 00:20:05,068
- Well, it's like this Captain Peacock,
444
00:20:05,068 --> 00:20:07,703
when I agreed to move
my department down here,
445
00:20:07,703 --> 00:20:09,712
I understood that I was
to have proper display
446
00:20:09,712 --> 00:20:11,229
facilities.
447
00:20:11,229 --> 00:20:14,027
Well I've just asked, very politely,
448
00:20:14,027 --> 00:20:17,823
asked Mr. Grainger to accommodate
me on the center stand.
449
00:20:17,823 --> 00:20:19,704
And he as good as told me to get stuffed.
450
00:20:22,305 --> 00:20:24,023
- That doesn't sound
like our Mr. Grainger.
451
00:20:24,023 --> 00:20:25,672
- Oh well, those weren't his exact words,
452
00:20:25,672 --> 00:20:27,262
but that's what he implied.
453
00:20:27,262 --> 00:20:29,387
- Well now what do you expect
me to do, Mrs. Slocombe?
454
00:20:29,387 --> 00:20:33,381
- Well, I thought that as
you were in command here,
455
00:20:33,381 --> 00:20:35,471
you'd tell him where he got off.
456
00:20:35,471 --> 00:20:38,663
- Well you must understand
Mrs. Slocombe that...
457
00:20:38,663 --> 00:20:40,413
- Oh come now, Betty.
458
00:20:41,784 --> 00:20:42,617
- Betty.
459
00:20:43,946 --> 00:20:46,187
As I was saying, you must
understand Mrs. Slocombe,
460
00:20:46,187 --> 00:20:49,577
that Mr. Grainger has been
here a very very long time.
461
00:20:49,577 --> 00:20:51,411
- Then it's time he went.
462
00:20:51,411 --> 00:20:53,513
- It's hardly your place to decide that.
463
00:20:53,513 --> 00:20:54,790
- Do you mean you're
just going to stand there
464
00:20:54,790 --> 00:20:56,671
and let him walk all over me?
465
00:20:56,671 --> 00:20:58,064
- I don't think there's
much danger of that.
466
00:21:02,777 --> 00:21:04,066
- I shall go and have a word with him
467
00:21:04,066 --> 00:21:05,738
and hear his side of it.
468
00:21:05,738 --> 00:21:07,897
- But I told you his side of it.
469
00:21:07,897 --> 00:21:10,312
- You must leave this to me Mrs. Slocombe.
470
00:21:10,312 --> 00:21:12,729
- Very well, Captain Peacock.
471
00:21:17,449 --> 00:21:19,229
- Oh he's as weak as water.
472
00:21:19,229 --> 00:21:20,506
Weak as water, he is.
473
00:21:20,506 --> 00:21:21,673
Weak as water.
474
00:21:22,944 --> 00:21:24,905
Anyway, he's taking it hard.
475
00:21:24,905 --> 00:21:26,832
- Oh, I bet you twisted him
around your little finger.
476
00:21:26,832 --> 00:21:29,999
- Oh, well after all, he's only a man.
477
00:21:31,151 --> 00:21:34,345
- There there Mr. Grainger,
now you mustn't upset yourself.
478
00:21:34,345 --> 00:21:36,098
We're right behind you,
aren't we Mr. Lucas.
479
00:21:36,098 --> 00:21:37,027
_ Oh right up to the hilt.
480
00:21:37,027 --> 00:21:38,792
- Thank you Mr. Humphries.
481
00:21:38,792 --> 00:21:39,941
Thank you Mr. Lucas.
482
00:21:39,941 --> 00:21:42,941
- It's been a pleasure Mr. Grainger.
483
00:21:43,947 --> 00:21:45,789
- Now he's coming over. Don't give in.
484
00:21:45,789 --> 00:21:47,669
- Oh I won't.
485
00:21:47,669 --> 00:21:49,748
- Yes hello Captain.
486
00:21:49,748 --> 00:21:52,104
- It's very quiet this
morning, Mr. Grainger.
487
00:21:52,104 --> 00:21:54,229
- Yes, very very quiet.
488
00:21:54,229 --> 00:21:55,413
- Very quiet indeed.
489
00:21:55,413 --> 00:21:57,469
Mr. Lucas and I were just
remarking how quiet it was,
490
00:21:57,469 --> 00:21:58,302
weren't we Mr. Lucas.
491
00:21:58,302 --> 00:22:00,708
- Oh yes, very quiet, very
quiet, yes, very quiet.
492
00:22:00,708 --> 00:22:02,705
I think things might liven
up in a minute or two though.
493
00:22:04,342 --> 00:22:06,629
- If you're free, Mr.
Grainger, I'd like a word.
494
00:22:06,629 --> 00:22:09,067
- Oh yes, I think I'm free, yes.
495
00:22:09,067 --> 00:22:12,307
Take over will you Mr. Humphries.
496
00:22:12,307 --> 00:22:14,153
I'm going to have a word
with Captain Peacock.
497
00:22:14,153 --> 00:22:15,534
- Yes of course.
498
00:22:15,534 --> 00:22:17,624
- Would you like me to take
over from you Mr. Humphries.
499
00:22:17,624 --> 00:22:19,029
- No, get over there,
and see if you can hear
500
00:22:19,029 --> 00:22:19,911
what they're saying.
501
00:22:21,734 --> 00:22:24,590
- I've just been having a
word with Mrs. Slocombe.
502
00:22:24,590 --> 00:22:25,832
- So have I.
503
00:22:25,832 --> 00:22:28,061
- Mmmm. A very difficult woman, Ernest.
504
00:22:28,061 --> 00:22:30,438
- Yes, most of them are.
505
00:22:30,438 --> 00:22:32,752
- Yes, I'm in a very awkward
position, you understand.
506
00:22:32,752 --> 00:22:35,271
I'm mean I'm under fire from both sides.
507
00:22:35,271 --> 00:22:37,872
- Well look here Stephen, you
and I have known each other
508
00:22:37,872 --> 00:22:39,462
for many years.
509
00:22:39,462 --> 00:22:42,063
You know that I would
do anything in my power
510
00:22:42,063 --> 00:22:43,563
to smooth the way.
511
00:22:44,548 --> 00:22:45,511
- Thank you Ernest.
512
00:22:45,511 --> 00:22:48,298
- Short of giving her that stand.
513
00:22:48,298 --> 00:22:50,298
- You're not gettin' it.
514
00:22:51,943 --> 00:22:53,627
- We're not getting it.
515
00:22:53,627 --> 00:22:54,460
- I see.
516
00:23:05,079 --> 00:23:07,996
Nevil, get me Mr. Rumbold's office.
517
00:23:09,032 --> 00:23:11,864
Hello, could I speak
with Mr. Rumbold please.
518
00:23:11,864 --> 00:23:13,223
- Well I'm sorry Mrs. Slocombe,
519
00:23:13,223 --> 00:23:14,628
but I'm afraid Mr. Rumbold's still with
520
00:23:14,628 --> 00:23:16,984
young Mr. Grace at the moment.
521
00:23:16,984 --> 00:23:20,984
Oh, hang on a second, I
think he's just leaving.
522
00:23:23,312 --> 00:23:24,145
- Morning.
523
00:23:24,145 --> 00:23:24,978
- Good morning.
524
00:23:24,978 --> 00:23:26,551
- Morning.
525
00:23:26,551 --> 00:23:27,801
- Good morning.
526
00:23:33,351 --> 00:23:35,430
Well that was a short day, wasn't it?
527
00:23:35,430 --> 00:23:37,903
- I don't know, he's put in ten minutes.
528
00:23:37,903 --> 00:23:38,736
I wonder where he's going.
529
00:23:38,736 --> 00:23:39,868
- I'd say it's a toss up between the bank
530
00:23:39,868 --> 00:23:40,710
and the undertaker.
531
00:23:43,902 --> 00:23:46,569
I'll build a stairway to heaven.
532
00:23:48,186 --> 00:23:50,706
Come on Sir Edmund, come on Sir Edmund
533
00:23:50,706 --> 00:23:53,206
you're doing great there, boy.
534
00:23:54,270 --> 00:23:56,824
- You've all done very well.
535
00:23:56,824 --> 00:23:57,822
Thank you.
536
00:24:03,825 --> 00:24:05,787
- You're through now Mrs. Slocombe.
537
00:24:05,787 --> 00:24:07,064
- Oh thank you.
538
00:24:07,064 --> 00:24:09,583
Mr. Rumbold, I'm sorry to trouble you,
539
00:24:09,583 --> 00:24:12,904
but I have a rather
serious complaint to make.
540
00:24:12,904 --> 00:24:14,030
- She's phoning Rumbold.
541
00:24:14,030 --> 00:24:15,226
She's going over my head.
542
00:24:15,226 --> 00:24:17,792
- She's already been over mine.
543
00:24:17,792 --> 00:24:20,950
- Well I've heard both sides of the story.
544
00:24:20,950 --> 00:24:23,666
I appreciate your points
about your brassieres,
545
00:24:23,666 --> 00:24:27,625
Mrs. Slocombe, but you must realize that
546
00:24:27,625 --> 00:24:30,702
that stand has been the
focal point of Mr. Grainger's
547
00:24:30,702 --> 00:24:33,152
trousers for the last 25 years.
548
00:24:37,111 --> 00:24:40,656
We must all pull together
and make the machine
549
00:24:40,656 --> 00:24:42,076
run smoothly, hmmm?
550
00:24:42,076 --> 00:24:42,942
- Here, here.
551
00:24:42,942 --> 00:24:43,775
Hmmm?
552
00:24:43,775 --> 00:24:44,608
- Here, here.
553
00:24:44,608 --> 00:24:45,441
Hmmm?
554
00:24:45,441 --> 00:24:46,274
- Here, here, too but what are we going
555
00:24:46,274 --> 00:24:47,268
to do about it?
556
00:24:47,268 --> 00:24:48,615
- Well it's very difficult.
557
00:24:48,615 --> 00:24:50,066
- It's not at all easy for you sir,
558
00:24:50,066 --> 00:24:51,146
being Solomon is it?
559
00:24:51,146 --> 00:24:52,471
- No indeed it isn't Captain Peacock.
560
00:24:52,471 --> 00:24:54,627
- Nobody's cutting a baby in half.
561
00:24:55,811 --> 00:24:58,575
- That's what Solomon did, Mr. Rumbold.
562
00:24:59,408 --> 00:25:00,304
Whatever for?
563
00:25:00,304 --> 00:25:02,777
- As a mater of fact, sir, he didn't.
564
00:25:02,777 --> 00:25:06,214
Two women came unto
Solomon with the same baby,
565
00:25:06,214 --> 00:25:08,548
both claiming it was theirs.
566
00:25:08,548 --> 00:25:11,624
- I don't think that's
apropo, Captain Peacock.
567
00:25:11,624 --> 00:25:15,270
We are here to discuss
Mrs. Slocombe displaying
568
00:25:15,270 --> 00:25:16,466
her underwear.
569
00:25:18,068 --> 00:25:20,308
- And furthermore, I don't
happen to have a baby.
570
00:25:20,308 --> 00:25:21,945
And if I did have a baby,
it would be nothing to do
571
00:25:21,945 --> 00:25:24,871
with whether I have my
underwear up or not.
572
00:25:24,871 --> 00:25:27,867
- No one's suggested you did have a baby.
573
00:25:27,867 --> 00:25:29,863
- I don't happen to be married.
574
00:25:29,863 --> 00:25:31,187
At the moment.
575
00:25:31,187 --> 00:25:33,381
- Well it's not unheard
of these days, you know.
576
00:25:35,622 --> 00:25:37,909
- Having a baby out of wedlock.
577
00:25:37,909 --> 00:25:40,022
- Look what's me not
having a baby got to do
578
00:25:40,022 --> 00:25:42,182
with him not taking his trousers down?
579
00:25:46,025 --> 00:25:47,824
- They've been at it
for two hours in there.
580
00:25:49,589 --> 00:25:51,224
- They're probably going
to take it to Vic Feather.
581
00:25:53,093 --> 00:25:54,343
Here they come.
582
00:25:58,503 --> 00:26:00,547
- Mr. Humphries, if you're free.
583
00:26:00,547 --> 00:26:02,714
Miss Brahms gather 'round.
584
00:26:04,297 --> 00:26:06,863
Mr. Lucas, are you free?
585
00:26:06,863 --> 00:26:07,745
- I'm free.
586
00:26:10,055 --> 00:26:11,309
- Come a little closer, we
don't want the customers
587
00:26:11,309 --> 00:26:12,142
to hear.
588
00:26:12,142 --> 00:26:12,975
- You'd have to shout.
589
00:26:14,548 --> 00:26:18,182
- Well then gentlemen and ladies,
Mrs. Slocombe has referred
590
00:26:18,182 --> 00:26:21,143
the matter of the center
display to Mr. Rumbold,
591
00:26:21,143 --> 00:26:23,546
who took the view I think quite rightly
592
00:26:23,546 --> 00:26:26,588
that it should continue
under Mr. Grainger's command,
593
00:26:26,588 --> 00:26:29,944
where he can continue to
deploy his shirts and trousers
594
00:26:29,944 --> 00:26:31,186
as he thinks fit.
595
00:26:31,186 --> 00:26:32,823
- Oh well done, Mr. Grainger.
596
00:26:32,823 --> 00:26:34,065
- Thank you Mr. Humphries.
597
00:26:34,065 --> 00:26:36,144
- Well done Mr. Humphries.
598
00:26:36,144 --> 00:26:39,151
- Does that mean, we can't
have even one bra up there?
599
00:26:40,346 --> 00:26:42,750
It's a man's world, isn't it?
600
00:26:42,750 --> 00:26:46,662
- Captain Peacock, now
that I have, as it were,
601
00:26:46,662 --> 00:26:49,182
won the day, I feel that in the interest
602
00:26:49,182 --> 00:26:53,187
of interdepartmental
relations I might just see
603
00:26:53,187 --> 00:26:57,354
my way perhaps to giving
Mrs. Slocombe a small foot
604
00:26:58,621 --> 00:26:59,621
in my stand.
605
00:27:00,792 --> 00:27:02,870
Shall we say, one bra?
606
00:27:02,870 --> 00:27:04,704
- Why not, I mean half
a bra would be better
607
00:27:04,704 --> 00:27:06,097
than no bra at al, wouldn't it.
608
00:27:07,351 --> 00:27:10,904
- Oh that's too generous
of you, Mr. Grainger.
609
00:27:12,459 --> 00:27:14,630
- Of course I do, Captain Peacock.
610
00:27:14,630 --> 00:27:16,320
- Well, everything's settled amicably.
611
00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:17,992
- Thank god for that.
612
00:27:17,992 --> 00:27:19,907
- I knew the very thing.
613
00:27:33,712 --> 00:27:37,545
- Beregen, Grainger here,
give me Mr. Rumbold.
